This book was by far my favourite out of the entire trilogy even though I enjoyed the others as well. 
I connected so much with Anna as we see her face the difficulties of undiagnosed Autism Spectrum Disorder, finding out about her diagnosis, coming to terms with all the pieces coming together about her entire life, family and culture that she loves but also suffocates her, and realising that she does not HAVE to be what everyone expects. 
There are so many lessons in this book. It genuinely made me cry and laugh at every point. 
This romance was not unnecessarily complicated. Their romance was unique to the characters. Reading through their communication was a breath of fresh air as it consistently maintained a level of healthiness even if one person is having difficulty.
This book was amazingly written and I would highly recommend this series for anyone who is interested in romance similar to the Brown Sisters trilogy.
